At a Council held the 25th April 1768.

Be it remembered that our Minister has paid us a visit upon a matter of more than ordinary weight and concernment and by the power of persuasions and argument hath restrained us from going to the Town of Hillsborough until the eleventh day of May unless there should be any distress for Levys on which day a certain Number not exceeding twelve men of penetrating judgments shall be selected out of our Regulators and sent to the said Town of Hillsborough then & there to propose and deliberate on such matters as shall be conducive to the preservation of our public and private Interest.
